With the SilverPC up and running, (check the August and September issues for that), it comes time to talk about software. After all, you can't run a PC without software.

Well, all the parts are in, and it's time to build the beast. If you missed it, check out last month's GearWorks for all the doodahs and pieces for this all-new HTPC. If you're using this as a guide on how to build your own HTPC, let me give a few tips to start.

<P>
It was way back in the June 2005 issue that I built an HTPC from scratch&mdash;I mean really from scratch, as in out of wood. For those of you who may have missed it, you can find it at<A HREF="http:// www.hometheatermag.com"> www.hometheatermag.com</A> under the GearWorks section. It was a great experiment, and it basically worked. I haven't felt any effects of the RF radiation of 3.6 gigahertz (there was no shielding), and the minimal amount of innards-securing hasn't been an issue. (At 54 <I>pounds</I>, it does not get moved much.)

But the average size of each booth at IFA is much larger. Some of them are entire buildings.</div></div></div>Tue, 04 Sep 2007 23:22:00 +0000sorcadmin86797 at http://www.soundandvision.com185 feet per secondhttp://www.soundandvision.com/geoffreymorrison/083007185fps/index.html

While at first this appears strange, it makes a lot of sense. The home audio market has been stagnant for years, and every bit of exposure can only help. The car also has several aspects that make it somewhat easier to design for than the home. For one, you know where your listeners are going to be, and you know with a lot of certainty what and where the reflective and absorptive surfaces are. The downsides, of course, are road noise, and less than perfect speaker placement. There are many ways a company can approach these problems, and done well, they can sound vastly better than the stock system, and often better than any aftermarket system as well.
